Summary
It’s time for a gut check. I’m thrilled to welcome back friends of the podcast, Just Thrive’s Tina Anderson and Kiran Krishna. Tina founded Just Thrive along with her husband Billy, and Kiran is a renowned research microbiologist who brings his valuable expertise to the brand.
Gut health issues have long been my Achilles heel. I’ve been taking Just Thrive’s probiotics for years, and they have been a huge player in helping me restore healthy gut microbiome. (Visit lukestorey.com/justthrive and use code LUKE for 20% off 90-day supply of Probiotic or Just Calm.)
In today’s episode, we talk about how the gut is connected to almost every function in our body. Top of mind is the gut-brain connection, and we dive into why it’s so essential. We also demystify the microbiome, debunk long-standing myths, and answer questions like… Is there such a thing as good and bad bacteria? Do I need to switch my probiotic every two months? And do I really need to refrigerate my probiotics? Listen for some surprising answers!
Plus, we explore prebiotics, postbiotics, fiber, and butyrate. We talk about psychobiotics and the connection between the gut and anxiety. I also share my favorite Just Thrive products for gut health, immunity, cognition, and stress.
